Jul 29, 2019 at 2:18 comment added Denis de Bernardy Indeed, but consider the flip side of it: the larger the scope, the bigger the ask of whoever answers. And the bigger the ask, the less likely you'll end up with any answer at all.
Jul 28, 2019 at 19:43 comment added Kristoffer Helander Why can't an answer contain two or more examples? If I suggest a specific narrow time period there might not be any information available. It is in fact even more interesting to get a perspective of how this practice changed over the full time period and how different countries handled it differently. Multiple solution for the same problem, always very interesting. History tends to be nuanced.

Jul 28, 2019 at 16:22 comment added Denis de Bernardy I've cast an additional vote to re-open, but if I may suggest, you'll want to add a more specific time period and, ideally, a specific enough region. Else, the question may very well end up closed again.

Jul 28, 2019 at 14:10 comment added Kristoffer Helander @DenisdeBernardy I have narrowed it down to just the constable.

Jul 25, 2019 at 19:26 comment added Denis de Bernardy So many questions... That would depend on all sorts of things. If the castle had accommodations or not, it might be; else outside the walls works. As to whether it was big enough for a family of 3-4, you're off in your estimate. Think more like 6-12. And at the time houses seldom had more than a room or two, with everyone sleeping in one or two beds (read: haystacks).
